Several techniques for the surgical correction of congenital supravalvular aortic stenosis have been devised. We describe the step-by-step surgical approach of a slide aortoplasty to correct localized supravalvular aortic stenosis in a 3-year-old child with Williams syndrome.

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most common congenital cardiac anomaly, predisposes individuals to aortic stenosis and regurgitation due to valve degeneration. Abnormal hemodynamics, arterial wall characteristics, and genetic factors contribute to ascending aorta dilatation, potentially leading to severe complications like aortic dissection. Presently, the most recent guidelines propose that individuals with BAV requiring valve replacement due to valve dysfunction should undergo simultaneous replacement of the ascending aorta when the diameter of aortic dilatation exceeds 4.

Background: Aortic wrapping (AW) has been performed as a less invasive alternative to aortoplasty. However, AW can also cause long-term aortic complications. In this report, we present a rare case of a dissecting aortic aneurysm between the proximal side of the wrap and the sinotubular junction after AW.

Simple coarctation of the aorta is repaired in an infant by direct end-to-end anastomosis of the aorta or subclavian flap aortoplasty. However, some cases are not detected until late childhood. For school-age patients, greater consideration must be given to risks such as postoperative limb ischemia and the potentially harmful effects of any artificial material on future growth.
